    He's back? I didn't know he was gone. Last I checked he won in Memphis and has been a factor at every race he was at.

    i say 'back' in a relative sense..the last few races he's only been .05 ahead of the field or so. looks like he'll be back to his .2 again...

    Heard Meyer's incrementals were better than the .13 run. If he gets that thing to hook-up and run on all 8 in air similar to what Boggs had in Mission, a 4 second blast is a real possibility.


    How did Shelly's car run?

    Come on Will give us the scoop on all the cars testing at Topeka. Who knows Shelly might get to liking not having to bring rpm up on stating line and hitting those shift points!!

    FYI, Orsmby's half-track clock on his 5.13 run was a 3.39@231.

    Shelly Howard has an A-Fuel car she was testing.
    I have heard it was a car Ricketts had?
    I guess we all should be carful what we wish for?
